<p><strong>Planet Auschwitz</strong> is comprised of fifty poems that explore events and atrocities of the Nazis during the holocaust of World War II.&nbsp;Each poem of five quatrains expands on a historical epigraph as a point of focus.&nbsp;While the poems individually serve as a snapshot of some aspect of the war as a collection they document its evolution from early discrimination and persecution of undesirables to mass incarceration and obscure methods of extermination of those the Nazis identified as expendable.&nbsp;</p>
